In the Beginning - Week 3

from UGA Wesley · host Bob Beckwith

*The first two minutes of this message were not recorded due to technical difficulties*Why is it so important that we read the Bible? What do we do with what God's Word says?In week 3 of In the Beginning, Bob delves into the second chapter of Genesis to explain the importance of God's Word and why it has been put in place. He starts off in the Garden of Eden where there are two trees: the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. God tells Adam and Eve not to eat from the second tree; not to deny them from something, but to protect them. God essentially uses the whole Bible for this reason: because He loves us and wants to protect us. He wants us to live by it - simply because He says so.
